    L/15, a trusted maker of WB`s??

    Hey Guys,

    Sorry for my ingnorance, but I`ve been reading through a couple of threads here, and have come to the conclusion, on hand of the info in other threads, that there was a maker L15, but not L/15?? Is this correct?

    My question would be, is L/15 a fake?
    Many thanks for your comments guys.

    Hi Dion

    As fare as I know wound badges should be marked L/15 not L15

    Cheers,

      I've seen very few marked "Otto's" but those I have seen have only been marked L/15 (with slash).

        L/15 = Otto Schickle (1939 - 1941)
        L 15 = F. Orth (1944 - 45) >>> not sure

        I got the information that an old man from Vienna found in front of F. Orth's shop (short time before the russians arrieved) a lot of EK's with maker's mark 15 and L15 which had the same features. There are L15 (without "/") EK's with Souval frames and we know that Souval (vienna, too) provided Orth with EK-parts.

          Hi Greuni,

          No, that's not how I understand it.

          L/15 = Otto Schickle (LdO number)

          15 = Friedrich Orth (Prasidialkanzlei number)

          L/14 = Friedrich Orth (LdO number)

          No Prasidialkanzlei number is known for Otto Schickle

          Regards
          Mike

            You are right.

            But 1944 anybody used the maker's mark L15, because there is a LDO document (1944), which contains that Otto Schickle didn't have the licence to produced awards. But why there is a document from 1944?
            I believe that F. Orth used the LDO number L15, too. L15 (LDO) is better to 15 (PKZ). All awards with a maker's mark L/15 are early pieces but awards with L15 are late pieces (zink). There are L/15 EK's with distinctive features (Schickle design), but there are L15 EK's with complete another features (Souval frame,...), too.
            All these L15 EK's have Orth features.

            There are no written evidences, it's only my assumption.

              Excellent guys, many thanks for all that input, its greatly appreciated!
              I was under the impression that a wound badge with L/15, did not exsist! Well, thats why I`m a member here, to find out these things!
              Once again, tons of thanks!
